I didnt know this when I ordered my parts so I used epoxy to glue the parts together.
Thanks. On the hilt I have a 7" Double female threaded connector and a double ended male threaded connector style 1 so I guess I can put it there.
So both the trim ring 3 or MHS Sleeve material "slides on" the outside of the hilt? Sounds nice. Most likely I think I am going to use epoxy to attach it.
I am currently buidling a Visas Marr light saber for my GF (or something that's going to be as close as possible). See picture bellow to see what's it looks like now. I have sanded it and know...
I am planning to use quick connects, placing the resistor between the quick connector and everything else on the positive lead.
I will check the wiring tomorrow when I have connected the resistor and everything else. Hopefully I didn't do the wiring properly on the second one.
I used 16mm Anti Vandal Short Momentary Yellow Ring Switch and its red counterpart. I don't remember which of them I tried first but if I blown the LED shouldn't the second one "fade away" like the...
Tonight I started to do the wiring for my first light saber. I am going to use two LEDs and two buttons (amber and red 16mm anti vandal short momentary ring switches) for switching color on the light...
Thanks for the link.
I don't know the history between "the others" and TCSS and will keep that in mind. I just tried to understand what you could do with PC3.
I asume PC3 is the same as the emerald drive that US sels, right? I have seen a video of what that can do and it is tempting to buy one but as mentioned it might be somewhat overkill for a kid. I am...
Ah, silly me :roll:
Do you guys know what resistor I need? Perhaps a silly questions but what is PC3 and RICE?
I imagine AA = HR6 = 14500 when it comes to these batteries? How many mAh is recomended?
Thanks for the reply to the both of you.
How do you adjust the color using a PC? What about buying a Luxeon Tri-rebel star with royal blue, green & red and mix the red and blue?
I am thinking about making a light saber for my girlfriends daughter. She is indeed a girlie-girl and I am planning on making the hilt pink. Does anyone know if it is possible to make pink LED as...
What is the difference between Metric Taper and Plug Tap?
You guys use PVC with ID of 1", right?
I have just ordered parts for my first light saber and found someone with access to a lathe. This enables me to change the hilt so it comes closer to what I want.
Thanks. Will this tap fit the tap handle from TCSS?
Thanks. This is the metric system so I guess I can get it here in Norway in a hardware-store. What does it mean when it says "M16-1 tap". I know what a M16 tap is but not with the "-1".
I imagine...
Thanks for the feedback.
I am considering to use a 7" extension as body but is probably going to use a lathe to do some modifications on it. Before I do that I need to know what material that the extensions (and other...
By using buck puck I hoped to avoid using resistor(s). I solder it on the positive lead and that's it? I am planning to use quick connect on the wires to the button but I imagne it will work out fine...
On the page for 16mm Anti Vandal Short Momentary Yellow Ring Switch it states there are no resistors inside it and that you will have to buy it. Is it possible to use buck puck instead?
A silly question: If I am going to use 16mm Anti Vandal Short Momentary Yellow Ring Switch and need to drill a hole - which tap & drill set should I use?
